🎙️ Ep 33: I Want to Smack Harry! ⚡📚
Which is stronger, fear or love? Yes, Dumbledoor. 😅This episode is a 5 ⭐ review kind of day and we are here for it.
We kick things off talking about the Libby app and Kasie finally gets it now 📱📚. Support your local library and borrow those books. Rachel casually reveals she has house away books in her DNF truck loads and honestly… we respect the chaos. Meanwhile Kasie absolutely oohs and gushes over Rachel’s journal because the vibes are immaculate. We talk journal evolutions and ask the real question.  How is YOUR reading journal evolving? ✨📓
We take a nostalgic detour and talk about Nancy Drew from when we were kids 🕵️‍♀️📚. Honestly it might be time for a reread. While you are at it, support your local library and independent bookstores because bookish communities matter. ☕📚
☕ Kasie Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dastram / Delirium samples the soaring verse of one of Scotland's pivotal poetic talents, Alasdair Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair. Translated by Taylor Strickland. 📲 taylor.strickland.arts
Kasie calls this one a spicy love story 🔥💋 and then things get completely wild with a very extra spicy ending.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Monsters You Should Know by Emma SanCartier is Kasie’s favorite art style right now. Dark. Spooky. Cute all at the same time 👻✨
This darkly humorous watercolor illustrated book features 17 folklore monsters from around the world presented in a tongue in cheek style. 📲 @OddFauna
Kasie loved the watercolor art and the style so much she now wants plushies of the monsters immediately.
☕ Rachel Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion Vol. 2 by Beth Brower 📲 @bethbrower
Rachel says this series gives major Jane Austen vibes and she is savoring them slowly. One book a month. A must must read 📖✨
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince by J. K. Rowling ⚡
Harry struggles to uncover the identity of the Half Blood Prince during his sixth year at Hogwarts while the rise of Voldemort looms over everything. Rachel is doing a reread and loving every minute of it.

Books. Journals. Monsters. Nostalgia.Libraries. Indie bookstores. Coffee. ☕📚
And the eternal question…Do we love Harry… or do we want to smack him? 😅⚡

Two-Hour Podcast Special: Independent Bookstore Day at Port Key Books
There are episodes that feel special while you’re recording them, and then there are the ones that stay with you long after the microphones are off. This Independent Bookstore Day special at Port Key Books was one of those rare, electric experiences. For two full hours, The Spilled Ink and Coffee Show stepped into a space where stories do not just sit on shelves, they breathe, connect, and transform.
At the heart of it all is Crystal, owner and true Book Extraordinaire of @portkeybooks @portkeybookstore. To call her a bookseller feels far too small. She is a storyteller in her own right, weaving together people and pages with an ease that feels almost magical. Listening to her share how Port Key Books began, you quickly realize this is not just a bookstore. It is a living, evolving community. A place where readers become friends, where authors become family, and where every event feels like unlocking a new chapter.
And the events. From intimate book clubs to unforgettable author signings, to the dazzling Bookish Balls where readers arrive in gorgeous fashion to celebrate the stories they love, Port Key Books offers more than meets the eye. It is endless magic waiting to be discovered.
Crystal’s go to recommendation during our conversation was City of Thieves by David Benioff (@DavidBenioff2 @davidbenioffofficial), a novel that speaks to the kind of gripping, human storytelling she champions. And speaking of storytelling, her own life is intertwined with it. She is married to a Veteran and published author, Aramis Calderon, whose work Fugitive Son (@aramis.calderon.writes @aramiscalderonauthor) reflects both service and creativity. Their shared world of words is inspiring and grounded in both sacrifice and passion.
Crystal also encouraged readers to dive into the lush worlds of Jacqueline A. Carey (@jcareyauthor), especially for those craving fantasy and romantasy with depth and beauty.
Throughout the episode, we did not just talk about books, we talked with the people who love them. Port Key patrons and friends joined in, sharing their thoughts, laughter, and recommendations. Our signature book review raffle added to the excitement and built toward a moment of celebration for our community.
And yes, this episode is packed with bookish gems.
We explored titles and authors lighting up shelves right now:The Kindred’s Curse Saga by @authorpenncoleThe Wicked Sea & Bitten by @jordanstephaniegray, fresh from her Port Key signingProject Hail Mary by @andyweirauthor @andyweirofficialever, which led us into a lively debate on movie versus book versus audiobookThe Poppy War by R.F. Kuang (@kuangrf)The Correspondence by @virginia.l.evansImprobably Yours by Cary Ann KingDungeon Crawler Carl Series by @mattdinnimanYesteryear by @caroclaireburkeTrad Wife by @saratogaishereThe Night Guest by @hildurknutsdottirPiranesi by @susannaclarke_The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by @veschwabHollow by @carolinepeckhamDivine Rivals by @rebeccajrossThe Road of Bones by @demiwinterswritesRedshirts by @jscalziAnd of course, ACOTAR by @sarahjmaas
Somewhere between these conversations, we found ourselves asking a question that lingered beautifully. What do YOU define as magical realism? In a place like Port Key Books, that line between the real and the magical feels wonderfully blurred.
We even uncovered a quirky favorite snack among book lovers, dry ramen and coffee. Not exactly gourmet, but undeniably iconic.
We could not celebrate Independent Bookstore Day without a major shoutout to @librofm and the GOLDEN TICKET, reminding us how important it is to support independent bookstores in every format.
And of course, celebration time.
Congratulations to Scarlett, the winner of The Spilled Ink and Coffee Show Bookish Gift Bag, filled with all your book journaling essentials. Your next chapter just got a little more magical.
Speaking of journaling, Book Journaling 101 Workshops are coming soon from The Spilled Ink and Coffee Show, and we cannot wait to dive deeper into how we capture our reading lives.
This episode was not just a recording. It was a gathering. A reminder of why independent bookstores matter, why stories matter, and why community matters.
Be sure you are following @thespilledinkandcoffeeshow and @portkeybooks so you never miss a moment, an event, or a little bit of magic.
Because if this episode proved anything, it is this.When books bring people together, something extraordinary always happens.

We spent TWO incredible hours inside the magic that is Port Key Books with Crystal, owner, storyteller, and true Book Extraordinaire 💫 From how it all began to the way she connects people to people and people to books… this place is pure community, connection, and bookish joy. And yes… the BOOKISH BALLS? Stunning. Fashion. Books. Celebration. Say less.

🥒✨Episode 31: Jars that press pickles they’re oddly satisfying!
Blood or pickles?Stamping or tabbing?Tears or trauma?Do we still blot lipstick? 💄We talk new book journaling ideas and evolutions, and seriously—what are YOU doing with your tabbies?!This episode has all of it.
Kasie gives 3.5 stars ⭐⭐⭐½ to EMOLECIPATION by Dylan West (dylanwestauthor.com), who writes young adult science fiction and fantasy that is faith-based and is also a video game designer 🎮📖.
💔 A tear-jerker! Rachel gives 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ to The Stationery Shop of Tehran by Marjan Kamali @marjankamali7 — a historical romance novel about two young lovers, Roya and Bahman, whose romance blossoms in a Tehran stationery shop in 1953, only to be tragically separated by a political coup.
😬 ARC talk! Rachel gives 2 stars ⭐⭐ to The Determined Book by Rachel Rueckert @rachekrueckert. Awesome cover. Let-down story. Not enough action!
🩸✨ Kasie reads Queer Little Nightmares and gives it 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐. Queer Little Nightmares is a collection of fiction and poetry that takes classic monsters, flips the horror gaze, and says: what if the things we’re taught to fear are actually powerful, beautiful, and deeply queer? Edited by David Ly and Daniel Zomparelli, this anthology is unsettling, lyrical, fierce, and absolutely not here to make you comfortable—and Kasie loved that for her. Perfect for readers who like their horror thoughtful, their poetry sharp, and their monsters a little too relatable. 🩸✨ Trigger warnings!
📲 Follow the editors: 🖤 @divad.ly 🖤 @dzompare
🔍 Rachel reads Local Woman Missing by Mary Kubica @marykubica. Local Woman Missing is a suspense thriller about the disappearances of Shelby Tebow, Meredith Dickey, and Meredith’s daughter, Delilah, in a quiet suburb, with the mystery deepening when Delilah reappears eleven years later, leading to shocking revelations about the past and present. Rachel gives it 3 stars ⭐⭐⭐.
🔥 Kasie reads a sci-fi sapphic graphic novel and absolutely loses it: WELCOME BACK, HELP, I’M ALIVE! 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ by Christopher Sebela. Kasie is drooling over all the hotties in this one. GORGEOUS art. Fiery story. 📲 @xtophersebela @xtop
Also featured because chaos and vibes: ☕ @bookandbottle 💄 @rupaul - PLEASE add Queer Little Nightmares to your reading list!!

🎙️ Episode 29: “Yikes! A Scary Booger!” 🤢📚
Buckle up, book besties—this episode is a WILD ride through crime, trauma, poetry, cheese (yes, cheese), and one unforgettable line: “Yikes… a scary booger!” 😱😂
📖 Rachel’s Reviews
🔍 My Sister’s Grave by Robert Dugoni⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Kindle@robertdugoniA gritty cop drama mystery kicking off the Tracy Crosswhite series. Dark, compelling, and somehow gave us the immortal reaction: “yikes, a scary booger!” 👀🚨
🎧 Long Island Compromise by Taffy Brodesser-Akner⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Audiobook (highly recommended! By @davidsedaris)@taffyakner @squarebooksA dark, emotional family saga about wealth, trauma, and the ripple effects of a shocking 1980 kidnapping. Rachel was SO emotionally invested she legitimately wanted to smack Beamer. That’s how you know it’s good. 😤💔@therealkieranculkin this has characters for you!
📚 Kasie’s Reviews
👽 Alien vs. Predator by Michael Robbins⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Physical BookA gritty, grungy, modern poetry collection that is not what you think. Spoken-word vibes, sharp edges, and a reminder that poetry can be as deep (or not) as you want it to be. 🎤🖤
🇳🇴 The Xenophobe’s Guide to the Norwegians by Dan Elloway⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Paperback@danellowayFun facts, humor, and cultural quirks galore! Master recyclers, paid to procreate, lovers of brown stinky cheese 🧀—a happy, responsible people we should all probably take notes from. A must-read for laughs and learning!
✨ Tune in for laughs, strong opinions, emotional damage, and maybe a newfound respect for Norwegian cheese.
